From 1960 to 1963 Mr. Norton was the host/performer and narrator of the
silent film comedy anthology TV series: "Funny Mann". The series was
seen in national syndication and on WABC TV Ch. 7 in NYC. Mr. Norton
performed in comedy skits as "Milkmann", "Dental Mann", "MailMann",
"The King Of Tomatoes", "PartyMann" etc. The skits led into a rerun of
an old silent film comedy that featured: Poodles Hannaford, Snub
Pollard, Billy Bevan, Oliver Norvell Hardy (without Stan Laurel) and
Mickey (McGuire) Rooney. Mr. Norton pre-recorded his narrations, which
were dubbed into the film's soundtrack. More often than not, the show's
co-producer and co-creator, Bobby (Nick) Nicholson performed in the
skits with Mr. Norton.
